The Voice Afrique Tweets Mining Part 2
In the previous post, we showed how to use Twitter API and the excellent Tweepy Python library to collect data and store them in a MongoDB database. It's now time to start aking questions.
Many of the questions that we ask of our tweets data can be answered through social network analysis. Questions such as who is important?, who talks to whom?, and what is important? can all be answered through a network. Using proper network measures, we can find these important actors or topics in a network.
